Re: My neighborhood smells like burnt coffee...Anyone have any ideas why this would be happening?

I live in the city limits, but that doesn't mean much around here. We have wildlife in the city here. Probably a skunk. I have dogs, but I also have a six-foot wooden privacy fence. Can skunks climb fences???

It’s probably a bunch of javos (homeless yuppies). They’re like winos but they’re drink of choice is coffee (preferably Starbucks). You sometimes see them in ragged triple breasted suits on street corners holding cardboard signs saying “Will do your taxes for food”. Of course you don’t want them to do your taxes so you give ‘em a couple of bucks. Off they go and get a triple latte and are hyped up for the rest of the day. It just runs through them though and they tend to urinate in public places. It ends up smelling like dark roast espresso and skunk.

I roast coffee at my house and can smell it for quite a while in my backyard after I'm done. Once after I roasted I walked my dog and got a whiff of the coffee I had roasted 20 minutes prior a full block away. I was really surprised.

I agree with the skunk theory. We have tons of them in my neck of the woods, and unfortunately, our pups have gotten sprayed more than once. This is going to sound pretty weird, however, but I actually like the way skunks smell. Sometimes.... lol
